All about me, and how I wont conform to the stereotypical view of a 'rapper'.
uk hip hop lyrics
UK Hip-Hop artist that refuses to conform with the stereotype.
I don't really want to be known as a rapper due to the presumptions and associations made by a lot of people in regards to any individual operating within the HipHop genre. When people hear the word 'Rap' they think things like drugs, guns, bling, violence, and swearing. I don't want to be affiliated with any of that; the scene has evolved, leaving behind a trail of clichéd and stereotypical gangster rappers that aren't actually saying anything with their lyrics. Too many people these days think that if you want to be a part of the HipHop scene you have to prescribe to the outdated 'don’t f**k with me, I'm a bad boy' routine. I want to stop people thinking this. I'd much rather be known as a lyricist; someone whose subject matter was actually something worth talking about. An individual who is just that; individual. Someone that tries to be original when there are so many wannabe gangsters walking around the streets. I'm just a normal guy who likes pubs and clubs or takeaway food and television. Nothing else. - 3rd Option

Lyrics
Best Behaviour Im not a rapper no call me a lyricist Don’t smoke tobacco or toke cannabis I’m not back at this But if your not, glad to hear stick in your rear orifice I’m sick of dicks always knocking this Much rather listen to a boring botanist And I don’t wanna fight But I might if you don’t play nice and trust me I’m not gonna miss Being negatives is not productive Wanna have a dig better be constructive I don’t wanna have a moan But I got a bone to pick with the pricks interrupting When I’m at the pub tryna have a drink Saying that I’m tryna be a thug telling what they think Cos I’m being myself Surely I’m free to rhyme even if I’m not a black belt. I’m being realistic this truths not twisted Or misted so don’t take the biscuit Im a social commentator not a faker Not a thug im on best behaviour. I don’t really care if you hate me you don’t have a clue Cos you’re calling me a wigger but you never seen me wear jewels Little fools, I’ve got principles Ignore what you saw before I’m original I’m not like the other 99% Cos I’m well proud of spitting with a Great Britain accent Don’t embrace all the chains and the burberry You calling me a chav? You’ll have to have surgery Just kidding I’m a peaceful lad You won’t see me running with a baseball bat Or a baseball cap cos that ain’t my scene My teams better fitted for a quite night in A few cans and a Chinese Round Rory’s tryna play Halo in a drunk haze That’s not gangster nah But I still write stuff down do you get the picture now? I’m being realistic this truths not twisted Or misted so don’t take the biscuit Im a social commentator not a faker Not a thug im on best behaviour. I’m being realistic this truths not twisted Or misted so don’t take the biscuit Im a social commentator not a faker Not a thug im on best behaviour. I’ve got a few things left I’ve gotta get off my chest I’m not an arrogant youth I’m not bad I’m not best I’m not ghetto and I’m not street But it’s not rapping its poetry So, no I don’t think that I’m well hard Not an emcee call me a modern day bard Don’t do drugs, write about pubs clubs Wannabe thugs and sometimes love Not guns though so don’t call me a faker I say what I see which makes me a commentator Don’t think that ill ever get famous I can’t even get onto my best mates play list But I still try and stay positive Cos I write for me, you’re not my prerogative If you don’t wanna listen then don’t It’s simple mate I’m not tryna win votes. I’m being realistic this truths not twisted Or misted so don’t take the biscuit Im a social commentator not a faker Not a thug im on best behaviour. I’m being realistic this truths not twisted Or misted so don’t take the biscuit Im a social commentator not a faker Not a thug im on best behaviour.
